Favour is the flavour that adds colour to a man's labour. A year of favour is greater that a life time of labour.Psalm 102:13 "Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour her, yea, the set time, is come."

ONE FLOCK, ONE SHEPHARD

"I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They
too will listen to My voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd". -
John 10:16

A friend of mine told me a story about an experience he had in Israel. They
were in the country visiting some of the famous biblical sites when they saw a
group of sheepherders. A shepherd brought his flock of sheep into a round pen
for the night. Then, a few minutes later, another shepherd brought his flock
into the pen. Then, a few minutes later, yet another shepherd brought his sheep
into the pen. There were three groups of sheep in the pen with no identifying
marks among any of them. My friend wondered how in the world they would
separate their sheep the next day.
The next morning, a shepherd came over to the pen and made a comment to his
sheep. One by one, the sheep filed out to follow him. Only his sheep followed
his voice. My friend said it was an amazing scene to see only that shepherd's
sheep follow him and the others remain in the pen. What a picture of Jesus'
words spoken centuries earlier.
Hearing and responding to Jesus' voice is the key to having a two-way
relationship with God. It is the difference between having religion and a
relationship. Can you recognize God's voice in your life? Are you listening to
the Shepherd's voice? Do you respond when He calls? Ask Jesus to help you
increase your ability to hear. Give more time to spending quiet moments in His
presence to hear His voice. He wants to be your Good Shepherd.
